  1. Lever Forum 💪
    Hi all, can anyone give me some ideas on this machine please? Found one second hand for 200€. I am totally new to levers so any opinion is welcomed. I heard that they have aluminium boiler...is their system good versus la pavoni? Does it make good shots? below are 2 photos. thanks in advance.

    I recently did a few changes and maintenance repairs to my Isomac Tea ll. I was always wondering about the water temperature on group head on MY machine, if it's between 90°C to 95°C. I found a nice thermometer (7€ on Amazon) and two cups, one to collect water and one for support. It works...

    Hi and Happy New Year 🥳 to you all this morning I started to de-scale my Isomac Tea ll. When I do that I disconnect the fill up sensor so the boiler fills completely and overflows. Everything went fine until I blew fuses because overflow water that drains into drain cup was loose and water...

    Hi all, I'm helping friends in a café and they desperately need a new commercial coffee grinder for espresso. it should be with dose distribution that can be regulated. A machine for bar, making 50-100 espressos per day max (more like 50 😉 ) I wouldn't mind buying in UK, (changing a plug...

    Hi all, I have the Isomac machine and it almost always weeps water from the overflow security valve located on top of the boiler and is dumped into the tray, nothing serious just annoying. I would really like to fix it. It's number 57/58 Does anyone have any experience with that? Can I...

    I would really like to insulate the boiler in my Isomac TEA II. A year ago I bought material for insulation of pipes which turn out to be a disaster. It dried up brittled and got stuck to the boiler. It was too low temp resistant. What do you people use that is good quality, thin enough (less...

    Hi all, I am puzzled...I have Isomac TEA-2 machine and I don't understand what is happening. As the machine warms up, the pressure release gets worse and worse and when the machine reaches full temp, it barely releases any water. when I back flush when cold, it whooshes out. I know the...

    I have ISOMAC TEA ll machine and I noticed that the whole machine is pretty hot to touch, not just the PF head. I mean "hot" that I can not hold my hand on the side panel or top...The machine is built in massive SS and weighs ~23kg. She is a single HX boiler. You guys with similar machines...

    ....is that I have almost all the time a small amount of pressure that stays in the Porta-Filter, after I made a shot. Odd is, that when I turn on the Isomac TEA 2, and do a backflush, (when machine is cold), the water shoots out perfectly. Whoosh:D The hotter the machine gets the more...

    Hi all, a strange thing, lately after I make a shot in my Isomac TEA 2, some of the pressure stays in the PF and does a little "psst" on releasing the PF. I descale every 3 months, recently replaced e pressure stat valve and everything runs OK... It's not a big deal but I prefer it to work...

  13. Home Roasters
    I got a question for professional roasters that use commercial gas fired machines. Size 5-15kg. Machine is equipped with a PID. The question is, how long do you roast in these machines? I roast for a cafe shop and try to do my batches in about ~12min time. I put ~5-6kg to arrive at that time...

    Strange problems on my machine...Yesterday I went to make a cup and I see a big puddle of water under the machine... The heat gauge (OPV) was way up and on further investigation I see that the security valve (no. 57) is constantly leaking into the cup and out to the tray. So at the moment I am...

    I was wondering what is the rough adjustment on this grinder for espresso....What is your set? It's got A to W [on left] and 1-10 [on right]....I am on "K" and #2 and 12sec. on the timer. And the timer? How much time to give you 17grams with your blade set? Thanks

    Went to make me a shot and I see that the main ON light is on, but the heater light (red) is off and so is the green light (ready) off...Steam gauge is down to 0. No water coming out of hot water tap, but the pump is running....(activated with lever)... Any idea what could have caused this, or...

    What do you think of a new sub-forum dedicated to E-61 group machines, regardless of brands? Most share the same principal function or technology and if you have a question on E-61, there's no place to look, except machines by brand, that is if your machine is listed Thanks

    I had a leak in the lever in the E61 group so I got a gasket kit from BB, (thanks for quick delivery) and my problems started... I followed the: http://www.frcndigital.com/coffee/HowToE61overhaul.html which is pretty straight forward and not too complicated. However, I failed in the fact...
